...everyone I would have voted for! For the first time ever the four acting awards were given to the very people I was rooting for! Heath Ledger, posthumously honored for his great work in The Dark Knight. Penelope Cruz for her fiery performance in Vicky Cristina Barcelona. If you have not seen this little film, go out and rent it right now. For his amazingly moving performance as Harvey Milk, I was thrilled that Sean Penn won. I implore everyone to see Milk. And the shining star of this award season - Kate Winslet! I'm ecstatic that she was finally honored by Oscar. Her marvelous work in The Reader is yet another terrific performance to add to her already stunning resume.Other highlights included presenters Tina Fey, Steve Martin, Ben Stiller, and Natalie Portman; the touching acceptance speech by Dustin Lance Black (winner for Best Original Screenplay for Milk); and the ceremony itself. Hugh Jackman was flawless as first time (and hopefully not last time) host. I loved how the ceremony was completely revamped. It was immensely enjoyable and I loved the musical numbers. And more so tonight than any other ceremony, there really seemed to be a palpable camaraderie among everyone. It felt genuine and uplifting. A wonderful night to celebrate movies!
